A pregnancy test performed on the same date as a preventive service may be reported separately using the CPT code appropriate to the test (e.g., 81025, âUrine pregnancy test, by visual color comparison methodsâ) and a diagnosis code from the V72.4X series (pregnancy examination or test).
This process is called continental drift. The plates move because of convection currents in the Earth's mantle. These are driven by the heat produced by the decay of radioactive elements and heat left over from the formation of the Earth.
There are three main driving forces for the movement of the Earth's tectonic plates. They are mantle convection, gravity, and the Earth's rotation. Mantle convection is the most widely studied method of tectonic plate movement and it is very similar to the theory developed by Holmes in 1929.n 1961 and 1962, scientists proposed the process of sea floor spreading caused by mantle convection to explain the movement of the Earth's continents and plate tectonics.
